The blatant favoritism at this school and who the administration chooses to get in trouble and who they let slide is obvious. How can you let two girls walk past you, both wearing the same outfit, and only say something to one? The vice principal is stuck up, thinks he's better than everyone and is your average highschool bully. you never see the principal, ever. Half of these teachers don't teach, some of them are just straight up disrespectful and miserable and very obviously hate their jobs. some of them just can't be bothered to show up to class some days. They tell you to be on your best behavior or they write you up the day before the district visits, and only then will they teach. Roaches everywhere, rats in the vents, holes in the wall. The janitors can't be bothered to do what they're paid for, bathrooms will go days without soap or toilet paper or even being cleaned. Mold growing in the vents, massive cracks forming between the floors and baseboards. The school counselor is miserable, several students and even teachers hate talking to her. I understand that being a school counselor may not be the best job, especially in this district, but if you're so bad that even teachers don't like interacting with you and ninety percent of the students can't stand you? I believe that says a lot. There's no communication between the school and parents, or at all period. If you can, absolutely avoid sending your kids here.

This school has great teachers, amazing students and the heart to see everyone succeed. It had a horrid principal but luckily she was replaced. I have been both teacher and parent at this school and I loved the experience minus dealings with the principal and her staff she brought with her from her previous school.

I love the school but I just think some of the people there backpack with certain student and it’s a big deal to me as a parent kids there to learn and get a education.
